    Is it the Dinosaur Jr version of "Goin' Blind' by Kiss (Ithink?)
  2. Johnny Wishbone
    Yes, TC Spectracomp. Tremendous.

    At a local-ish festival last summer. I haven't changed much!

    Plans for the MK1 cab are attached. Took me ages to find them originally, so I made sure I saved it! Hope that helps.

    'Long' bridge sold.
  6. Johnny Wishbone
    Sure. Shoot me a PM.

    Few bits to shift, all prices include UK postage. Just bits from projects that never happened or have been upgraded and are now surplus to requirements. 2 x BBOT bridges. Standard Fender drill pattern, one has a slightly longer baseplate than the other. One is a Squier IIRC, the other is from a random Jazz body I bought off eBay. Both work as they should and have some very minor marks/wear as they have been used for a short period. £8 each. *Larger bridge now sold* 3 X pairs of cheapish Chinese P Bass control knobs (dome topped). One set is push-fit, the other two are set-screw type. Never used. The push fit ones seem slightly better quality than the others, but they're all perfectly fine. £4 per pair. Happy to supply more close-up photos at request.

    What's the distance between front and rear rails of this, please?

    Chris Cornell, just because out of his contemporaries (Cobain, Vedder, Staley) he seemed the best equipped to handle the fame and adulation. He seemed to take it all in his stride and you'd think by the time he'd reached 40 he was 'out of the woods', so to speak. Whilst the deaths of Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley hit me hard, they weren't exactly unexpected. It's a surprise Eddie Vedder is still going strong given how close to the edge he was early in Pearl Jam's career.

    What about frozen concentrated orange juice?

    Bought a very nice Jazz bass body off Dave. Exactly as described with good despatch time and clear comms throughout. Cheers!

    FWIW, I use a 4 string tuned Bb, EB, Ab, C# on some songs and my pair of these cabs don't struggle at all. They are quite bassy anyway.
  16. Johnny Wishbone
    Still got two sets of these The others I sold were the JBXN ones. I will PM you.
  17. Johnny Wishbone
    Ceramic magnets. Loud, powerful and punchy. Set comprising of one bridge and one neck pickup. Only used for one rehearsal so pretty much immaculate. Just not the sound I was looking for. £15 posted within UK
  18. Johnny Wishbone
    One set sold.
  19. Johnny Wishbone
    £25 posted per set (1 neck, 1 bridge) and I've got 2 sets. Only been used for a month or so. Very loud and articulate, just a bit too modern sounding for me (these are the slightly more expensive neodymium versions). Couple of slight scuffs on the covers where the mounting screws have rubbed on the way in, but otherwise pretty much as new.
  20. Johnny Wishbone
    Glad they were finally able to get you on! I'll make sure I'm at the next one.
  21. Johnny Wishbone
    PM incoming....

    Incidentally I would add that I'm a dreadful carpenter and managed to build two of the MK1 cabs fairly easily after watching this. They really are excellent. I'm selling my Orange 4x10 as a result.
  23. Johnny Wishbone
    Plans are attached. Here's a video of Phil building the mk2 cab at a recent bass bash on a related thread:

    Wasn't it a Boston song? Can't remember the title though.

    Usually but not always. Some strings have higher (or lower) tension than others for a given gauge, so you won't really know for sure until you make the change. Change the strings, tune to pitch and leave overnight/a few hours. Check the neck relief and adjust the truss rod if necessary. Normally a quarter-turn or so would be enough for such a minor change in string gauge. YMMV of course.
